Though she’s an Australian native and Aussie girl at heart, Nicole Trunfio is taking her model power and expanding her name worldwide. She was discovered during the Australian Search for a Supermodel and immediately hit the Paris runways during September of 2003, walking for Fendi, Gucci, Versace, Chanel, and Chloé.

Since her first moments in modeling, Nicole has snagged the attention of designers and casting directors all over, appearing on the pages of many international editions of Vogue, including Italian, Russian, Spanish, German, and her native Australian, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire, Flair, Allure, and Elle while strutting the runway for designers including Valentino, Chanel, Fendi, John Galliano, Christian Lacriox, Oscar de la Renta, and Gucci.

Modeling isn’t the only career path that keeps Nicole busy, though. Between her appearance as a model mentor on Bravo’s Make Me a Supermodel, her acting roles on Two Fists, One Heart and The Last International Playboy, and her passion for extreme sports, Nicole has a full schedule. But she still managed to launch a brand new collection with another passion: jewelry design.
